The actual reason why I divided the single hwmon driver into two is for
using recommended hwmon API set which doesn't allow incremental
creation of sysfs attributes at run time - using of
'devm_hwmon_device_register_with_info' is suggested by Guenter instead
of using other deprecated APIs.

The reason why the delayed registration is needed is, BMC kernel cannot
know how many DIMM are installed in remote machine before the machine
completing memory training and testing in POST. So dimm temp driver
cannot create hwmon attributes in advance.

My thought is, this way is the best to address these requirements.
